1394 results about "Error message" patented technology

An error message is information displayed when an unexpected condition occurs, usually on a computer or other device. On modern operating systems with graphical, error messages are often displayed using dialog boxes. Error messages are used when user intervention is required, to indicate that a desired operation has failed, or to relay important warnings (such as warning a computer user that they are almost out of hard disk space). Error messages are seen widely throughout computing, and are part of every operating system or computer hardware device. Proper design of error messages is an important topic in usability and other fields of human–computer interaction.

Web server apparatus and method for virus checking

A web server computer system includes a virus checker and mechanisms for checking e-mails and their attachments, downloaded files, and web sites for possible viruses. When an e-mail message contains a detected virus, the message is discarded, and both the sender and recipient are informed via e-mail that the message contained a virus. When an e-mail attachment contains a detected virus, the attachment is deleted, and the e-mail message without the attachment is sent to the web client, along with a message explaining that the e-mail message had an attachment that was automatically deleted because it had a virus. When a downloaded file contains a virus, the downloaded file is deleted, and an error message is sent to the web client to inform the web client that the requested file had a virus. When a requested web site (i.e., Uniform Resource Locator (or URL)) has been labeled as a source for a known virus, a message is sent to the web client stating that a virus may have been downloaded from that URL. In addition, if the requested URL has not been labeled as a source for a known virus, but it contains links that have been so labeled, the web page is processed before being sent to the user to identify those potentially dangerous links. In this manner a web server can perform virus checking of different types of information real-time as the information is requested by a web client. In addition, a web client may also request that the server perform virus checking on a particular drive on the web client. If this case, the web server may receive information from the web client drive, scan the information for viruses, and inform the web client whether any viruses were found. In the alternative, the web server may download a client virus checker to the web client and cause the client virus checker to be run on the web client. The preferred embodiments thus allow a virus checker on a web server to dynamically scan incoming data, and to scan web clients coupled to the web server, thereby eliminating the need for virus checking software to be installed on each web client.

Method, product, and apparatus for resource identifier registration and aftermarket services

When a network resource request having a domain name is received, it is determined whether the network resource can be accessed from the domain name. Rather than, or in addition to, displaying an error message or processing a search request in response to determining that a network resource can not be accessed, the domain name can instead be redirected to a registration service where the domain name can be automatically used to perform a registration request and determine domain name availability. When the domain name is not available for registration, domain name registrant information is provided. However, when the domain name is determined available, a registration form is provided. For example, such a domain name may be redirected from the autosearch feature of a web browser to a service, which determines that the domain name is available for registration enabling a potential registrant to register the available domain name by selecting a domain name registration provider from a list of domain name registration providers.

Hierarchical system and method for centralized management of thin clients

A system and method for managing a network of thin clients is disclosed. The thin clients may be organized into a hierarchy with multiple administrative servers in a hierarchy, each managing one or more thin clients. Updates to thin client configurations may be performed by propagating update information to a top-level master administrative server, which in turn conveys the update information to one or more lower-level remote administrative servers, which in turn convey the update information to their managed thin clients. To simplify network management, the thin clients may be organized into arbitrary clusters, regardless of their position within the hierarchy structure. The hierarchy may also be used to control the propagation of error messages from thin clients. The hierarchy may be implemented using a thin client management program that configures thin clients according to their position within the hierarchy.

Method and apparatus for automatic downloading of URLs and internet addresses

A bookmark transfer mechanism allows a user to transfer bookmark information from a primary computer to an alternate computer to customize a bookmarks menu on a web browser displayed on the alternate computer. The alternate computer prompts the user for a base address which is used by the web browser on the alternate computer to locate the primary computer where bookmark information is stored. The base address should correspond to a primary computer that has been configured for automatic download of bookmark information. Once the primary computer is located, the alternate computer transfers the base address and prompts the user for security information. The alternate computer then delivers the security information to the primary computer. The primary computer then authenticates the security information. If the security information is not valid, the primary computer delivers an error message to the alternate computer indicating that access to the primary computer has been denied. If the security information is valid, the primary computer transfers the bookmark information to the alternate computer. If necessary, the alternate computer translates the received bookmark information to the proper web browser format and updates the bookmarks menu on the web browser to include the transferred bookmark information. The bookmark information may be either temporarily or permanently incorporated into the web browser.

Location system and method for client terminals which provide location-based service to mobile terminals

In one of multiple mobile communication networks, a serving node responsible for locating mobile terminals is responsive to a registration request from a mobile terminal for storing the serving node identity in a home location database to which the mobile terminal is subscribed. In response to a location request message from a client terminal requesting the location of a target mobile terminal, a serving node identity is retrieved from the home location database of the target mobile terminal. The serving node identity represents the current location of the target mobile terminal. If the current location area is within the coverage area of location-based service provided by the client terminal, the location request message is forwarded to a serving node identified by the retrieved serving node identity. Otherwise, an error message is transmitted to the client terminal to indicate that the target mobile terminal is roaming outside of the coverage area.

Method and system for handling errors in a distributed computer system

A method and system for tracking and processing errors in a distributed computer system. As an application encounters an error, a centralized system intercepts and assumes the processing of that error event. The central error processing may be used with a distributed network connecting the applications running on various user computers. Upon receipt of an error message from an application, the system creates an informative error package, propagates appropriate error alert to relevant subsystems, and attempts to resolve the error. The error may be resolved in various ways. For example, the system may select and dispatch appropriate help information to the user; or the system may locate an alternative resource to substitute for the failed resource. The system may prioritize errors when there is more than one error still unresolved at any given time. In addition, the system may filter errors that require different levels of response and the system may direct errors to resources capable of assisting in resolving the error.

Method for tracking and reporting usage events to determine when preventive maintenance is due for a medical robotic system

A medical robotic system comprises a number of components that may be monitored to determine their preventive maintenance needs by recording usage-related information for the monitored components into associated non-volatile memories. When usage of the component exceeds a specified usage threshold, the system displays a warning message on its display screen to have preventive maintenance performed for the component. If the usage continues without such maintenance and exceeds a higher usage threshold, the system displays an error message on its display screen and the system transitions into an error state during which medical procedures are not allowed to be performed. The usage-related information may also be communicated to a remote computer which gathers and processes usage-related information from a number of medical robotic systems to estimate resource requirements for timely performing preventive maintenance on the medical robotic systems, and anticipated service revenues from such maintenance.

Method and apparatus for verifying the contents of a global configuration file

A method and apparatus are provided for determining the validity of a global configuration file. In order to verify the global configuration file, the configuration file is first “flattened.” To flatten the configuration file, the rules in the first block of the configuration file are identified. A settings file is then created with the rules set as true. The normal configuration process is then performed on the configuration file. The resulting settings file constitute the flattened settings for the block and are associated with the block. A determination is then made as to whether any conflicting settings, inconsistently set related settings, or syntax errors exist within the flattened settings. If any such settings do exist, an error message is generated. This process is then repeated for each block in the configuration file so that flattened settings are created for each block. A testing block may also be utilized to identify problems with the settings file generate by the testing block. Reverse queries may also be performed on the settings file. Changes in the flattened configuration files caused by changes in the global configuration file can also be identified. The flattened files may also be used to simplify the server computer configuration process.
